Summary Introduction

Introduction:

There are four types of blood groups in humans, namely; A, B, AB and O. and these four blood types are either Rh+ or Rh-

Blurred answer
Students have asked these similar questions
When determining the blood type and RH factor of a patient in the lab, which blood type and Rh factor is a person whose red blood cells were agglutinated by both anti-A serum and anti-B serum, but not by anti-Rh serum? O a) AB Rh-negative O b) AB Rh-positive O c) O Rh-negative O d) O Rh-positive
Why might erythroblastosis fetalis occur when an Rh- mother becomes pregnant with a second Rh+ baby (after exposure to the previous Rh+ baby's blood)? A) Erythroblastosis fetalis can only occur when an Rh+ mother becomes pregnant with an Rh- baby. B) After primary exposure, if the Rh- mother has an Rh+ baby, then antibodies the mom produces can cross the placenta and attack the baby's blood. C) The Rh- mother always produces antibodies to the Rh+ blood, so erythroblastosis fetalis is a condition that can happen to any Rh+ baby (first or subsequent).
An individual demonstrates antibodies (A) and antibodies (B) in their blood. Their blood type would be which of the following? (A) AB+ (B) AB- (C) AB ? (presence/absence of Rh factor undetermined) (D) O+ (E) O- (F) O ? (presence/absence of Rh factor undetermined)
